Thousands packed into churches and around cenotaphs for a special Remembrance Sunday to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of World War One.

Dozens of services, from Elland to Denby Dale and Marsden to Batley, took place drawing record numbers of civilians, active and veteran service personnel, clergy, dignitaries and musicians.

Spectators lined Huddersfield town centre for the annual Remembrance Sunday parade which was led by Hade Edge Band.

The parade, which also included Army, Navy and RAF cadets, scouts, St John Ambulance and representatives from the emergency services and Huddersfield University, then filed into Huddersfield Parish Church.

The near capacity service, led by Vicar of Huddersfield Rev Simon Moore, included Kirklees Mayor Ken Smith, Huddersfield MP Barry Sheerman and military officers as guests of honour.
